Cash-Strapped York?

Linda Briskin

Today [Feb. 25]in the Globe and Mail I was shocked to find a 62 page glossy magazine promoting York's 50th anniversary. I would imagine that the cost of this magazine would far exceed the cost of the demands that the contract faculty and graduate students had on the table during the strike. Combine this with the cost of the external anti-union lawyer to front the negotiations for three months, the branded wine, the cost of President Shoukri's mortgage...

I think it will be hard for the administration to claim financial problems with the arbitrator appointed to settle the CUPE strike. I hope the administration is required to open its books should it attempt to make such claims.
